Uruguay has been pretty impressive so far. Their defending has been much better than I expected, and Forlan can go off at any time. They are definitely more talented than South Korea, so if they don't completely fall apart tactically (on set pieces, for example), I think they will move on pretty easily.

I'll say 2-0 Uruguay.

I see Uruguay making it to the Semi's and they have the team to beat anyone. I dont think they will, but they can.

As for this match, Uruguay 3-0. They get 2 late goals as S. Korea tries to score the equalizer.

And just like that Uruguay's up one. Whipped one across the box, goalie went for it and missed, and Suarez tapped it in on the other side.

Dont give Japan or South Korea free kicks, you will get scored on.

Then they come back with just horrific defending and Suarez puts it in the open net. 1-0 Uruguay.

South Korea is starting to really dominate possession and create good chances. first half they had the run of play, but not good chances. I could see a fairly late goal and extra time in this game, or my original prediction of Uruguay scoring early and then getting 2 late as South Korea chase the game.

This game needed that Korean goal. It's really opened up.

Suarez and Forlan are both on form.

We need to beat Ghana first and foremost, but then we greatly need S. Korea to comeback and win. Our defense cant handle Suarez and Forlan for a whole match and Uruguay has a great defense. S. Korea can be scored upon.
